Maybe Chief Jimmy's Potlatch was different.” “Maybe be was sort of trying eta.show off for those bad Indians - svited,” sumrested David. “Perhaps that was it. Yes, 1] Guess it must have been just that,” Mother dear's friend con: tinued. “Jack and IT eat well to one side, hunched down on our heels, and we didn’t miss a thing. One set of men begun the dance with & wild whoop. They carried knives in their hands and as their anms Mew, about they gashed them Selves without appearing even to | notice it. “Round and round they danced with blood trickling down their bodies, till you would have thought’ they would bleed death. “After that dance was finished there came more whooping men. These danced with tron skewers thrust thru the flesh of their arms, danced with stolid faces and no sign of pain.” “What in the m! f aid they want to do all that y stuf for?” asked David. “Showing their friends (or ene. mics) how brave they were,” the to story teller went on. “And that | wasn't the worst of It, While we watched one of these dancers did something which looked funny, to a woman who sat near us, and |the woman laughed, Instantly the dancer saw it and quick ds a flash he wheeled upon her, and foatching her by her long hair dragged her after him in the wide cirele of his dance, | “More than once or twice that happened. A woman dared |taugh and was dragged in that | way all around the circle to teach her self-control, “After the skewer-plerced men were thru came the group which | seamed to ma the most terrifying. |They came leaping up from the | water's edge with their long, jblack hair dripping wet, and | danced to the central fire. From this they drew good sized stones |whieh had been heated all morn ing, and what do you think they |aia? Placed these hot stones on their heads and binding them in place with their long wet hair began their dance, Steam rose in |clouds above their heads and we could smell the scorching hair as | it dried out, but the Indians never finched—they danced and danced and danced while the watchers looked on, and neither watcher nor dancer showed a trace of any feeling.” (To Bo Continued) Rakane ADVEN TURES OF OTHE Twi NS MUFFY MOLE’S PLAN LE 2 serecons 3) I'd like to stay home but my daddy won't let me,” said Flop. » °°B matter? asked Muff Mole of “Floppy Field Mouse, after the two SBad gone about three turns past the ence corner toward the Meadow | Groove schoothouse.

What are you| joing ‘way up here in this lonely place?” replied Reddy. “It's a long story,” said Sammy Jay. “Tell ft to me,” begged Reddy Fox. So Sammy Jay told him all about the trouble he had had on the Green Meadows and in the Green Forest, and how hardly any one would speak to bim because they said that he kept them awake by screaming in the night. He told how he had sat up all night and had heard what! sounded like his own voice, when all the time he was sitting with his mouth shut as tight as tight could| be. Then he told about Blacky the Crow's plan, which was that Sammy should come to the Old Pasture and live for a week. Then, if the little people of the Green Meadows and the Green Forest heard screams in| the night, they would know that it wag not Sammy Jay who was wak. ing them up.
